Need to Cancel out of a page

[bubberz]

If a user is, for example, adding a new Employee to the pubs database, and wants to "cancel out" of the addition of this new employee, what do I need in the cancel button's event handler?

Can you not have it simply post the page without putting anything in the event handler?

I figured it out...I just kept the Request.QueryString value in a hidden label, then if the user cancels, all I have to do is repost the page. May need to use the state view instead since that won't call another trip to the db...thanks!

If it is a datagrid then you can set to EditItemIndex = -1
to cancel the edit mode and return the grid back to normal.
Bind your datagrid after the Cancel_button event where you would set the datagrid.edititemindex to -1.
